“We just had TV in bazaar, and I saw on TV that there was a film going on, and all the guys, the pilots, were coming and rescuing the people,” the pilot recounted in a video released by NATO’s Resolute Support mission. “After that, I decided, and it became my dream, to be a pilot ... to bring those guys from the battlefield and to be a [savior] for them.”
